Since we've been eating a little lighter and healthier the past few days, I think it's time to reward ourselves with a decadent dessert. Who's in?
Reeni from Cinnamon Spice and Everything Nice posted this recipe a week or two ago and I was ga-ga. Reenie makes the most incredible confections and pasta dishes; I heart Reeni's blog.
I am a fan cake and cupcakes and yes Blonde Duck I like pies, but there's just something so satisfying about a moist, chocolaty brownie that makes you feel all is right with the world.
Supernatural Brownies by Nick Malgieri
16 tbsp. unsalted butter, plus more for greasing
8 oz. bittersweet chocolate, cut into 1⁄4" pieces
4 eggs1 cup sugar
1 cup firmly packed dark brown sugar
2 tsp. vanilla extract
1⁄2 tsp. fine salt
1 cup flour
1. Heat oven to 350°. Grease a 9" x 13" baking pan with butter and line with parchment paper; grease paper. Set pan aside.
2. Pour enough water into a 4-quart saucepan that it reaches a depth of 1". Bring to a boil; reduce heat to low. Combine butter and chocolate in a medium bowl; set bowl over saucepan. Cook, stirring, until melted and smooth, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat; set aside.
3. Whisk together eggs in a large bowl. Add sugar, brown sugar, vanilla, and salt; whisk to combine. Stir in chocolate mixture; fold in flour. Pour batter into prepared pan; spread evenly. Bake until a toothpick inserted into center comes out clean, 30–35 minutes. Let cool on a rack. Cut and serve.

Dear Lord, I can feel my behind growing just looking at those brownies! Quick - where are the carrots to counteract them???
oh those do like they are to die for!
Supernatural alright, super fatting! I'd eat a plateful NOW if I had them!

These look just heavenly - so much chocolate goodness!
Thanks for stopping by...and is it wrong that I'm seriously drooling at just the THOUGHT of these?!?!?!?
Every thing would be right with the world if I had a plate of these and the rest of my garden planted :) I'm already 3 hours behind this morning.
These look very moist and delicious! I have been very good for the past several days and have not eaten any sugar, so I will make these this weekend for the family to enjoy! I love Reenie's blog also!
Oh, I'm totally in! Let's do the indulgent reward thing! I love Reeni's blog, too, and was absolutely craving these brownies after I saw them on her site. Now that you've made them--and they look SUPER delicious on in your pictures--I'm thinking that I need to just break down and make them myself! Man do they look good!
Whoa, those look amazing!!!!!
If I get the chance to choose my last dessert ahead of time, it will involve a brownie. Quite possibly this one.
Reeni does make the best desserts doesn't she? Did you see the little cupcakes she has up right now? Thanks for your well wishes, I'm feeling slightly better today. I've turned the corner!
OH MY WORD! YUM!
I swear, we are on the same wave-length... everytime I think of making something (or wish I had a recipe for), you MAKE IT!
xo
Those look so freaking good, I love brownies. The name alone is too cute!
I like blondies! In fact, I ADORE blondies! I just have no one to eat them with. Just like pie. Le sigh.
I would eat brownies, and I make them for Ben on special occasions, but I'm allergic to chocolate!
How sweet!! Weren't these such a yummy treat? They just melt in your mouth. I couldn't stop eating them!!
You made my day. I heart your blog too!!
Do I roll around in those or just rub them on my thighs?
Supernatural? Does that mean they are calorie free? Who cares, they look delicous.
Brownies and blondies are super underrated in my opinion!

These brownies look so decadent and delicious!
Yumm... your brownie is looking so delicious! Mouthwatering!
NO! You can not do this to me! I am on a NO SUGAR diet and you post this. (sob, sob) I'm going to go hide in the corner and lick my screen. :)
Mmmm, those brownies sound so delicious! YUM! Don't you just love the Blond Duck - she is so sweet!
I am going to save that recipe and make it for a special occasion! Thanks so much!!!
XOXO
Jen
these look fantastic!
YUM-O...I'm like Donna and could just sink my teeth into one or two of those as we speak.
Have I mentioned that brownies are my very favorite food? And I have I mentioned that I live fairly close to you?
I love brownies... and this one looks so good! *drooling*
My mouth is watering!! Looks like the perfect dessert...or breakfast! :)
Mmm, they look so fudgy and delicious, just the way brownies should be. Yum!
Oh man, you totally had me at the word "supernatural" in the recipe title! How can one possibly turn down chocolate decadence with that word in it? I'm not even a big dessert eater and it's totally necessary that I consume these. In quantity. YUM!
i love recipes that don't have too many steps or ingredients, and this fits the bill.
I will heart you even more if you could send me one of those right now!
Why do I always check out blogs when I'm hungry? It's like going to the grocery store on an empty stomach-never a good idea!
I had these brownie down to try, they look amazingly sinful and wonderful.
;) amy
Oh my my!!
Nothing like a bit of chocolate overload to brighten your day. These looks wonderful! I know for a fact these would not last long in my house, even from the hubby who claims chocolate isn't the greatest flavor. Yes, people like this exist, can you believe?
